This was one of the most heart rendering Processions I've seen. In terms of the C.A.F, this is huge. I served on an Honour Guard for the Queen Mother, that had less Armed forces members in it. It brought tears of gratitude to my eyes to see him remembered like this. He gave his life guarding our Honoured and Unknown dead. There is no greater sacrifice a soldier can give, the least we can do is show our gratitude, and making his final Parade and public show of thank you. This and the public salutes on the Highway of heroes, makes me so proud of my Country and our citizens. We honour, appreciate and Value our Vets. Please tell one next time you see her, or him.

I live in SF, US. My city will never allow to have honor to our soldier burial marching on street. Like you say, this the best honor to a falling soldier.

From a very proud Brit, thank you so much for everything; it's such a shame young gentlemen like Cpl. Cirillo, have to make such huge sacrifices for the likes of me and you to enjoy the things we take for granted. Thank you Sir, and thank you to all the Canadian Armed services.

As someone who recently joined the Canadian Army, and hopes to make the best out of it, I have the utmost respect for Cpl. Cirillo.

I watch this every year. As a Hamilton-born Canadian, I am both sad and very proud to have seen such an incredible procession in honour of Nathan. Thanks to all of the various forces that travelled to Hamilton to honour Cpl. Cirillo

It looks like the entirety of the Canadian Armed Forces participated in this procession. It's no less than he deserves for giving his life serving his country!

What an unbelievable procession. I love Canada.

RIP MY Canadian Cousin, from Scotland.

I’m just now seeing this. I live in the United States, am 61 and spent over 35 years in law enforcement and firefighting. My family, including my son have bent mostly in law enforcement, firefighting, members of ever ark if the military, members of medical in every manner likely, and yes even many members of the clergy. We figure we would just cover about everything. I’ve seen many funeral processions of military (all branches) law enforcement and firefighting here in the states. But with the exception of New York, which includes participation of the police and fire, no matter which service, and maybe some large cities, they don’t come close to the participation I’ve just witnessed. While I didn’t serve in the military, I was turned down for med reasons, I am fiercely patriotic, and it doesn’t matter if it’s here or over seas in your part of the world. I get very emotional for final salutes, our Taps, missing man flights etc and will likely cause tears to flow. Most of my career I served in our 911 Emergency Communications, and have done many of our last calls, for many months police and fire funerals. It’s not easy, and usually I’m unable to work a full shift when I do. I know this is a long post, but I wanted to convey where I am, what I’ve done, and why I am so consumed with paying final respects did those that put their lives on the line each and every day. I was just completely blown away by the participation of what I can tell, each and every unit of military, police, fire and some I didn’t know. God Bless each and every one of you, and especially the men red if the family of your fallen brother. May God protect each of you as you serve your country, as we do ours.

You killed him while he was on ceremonial guard duty at Ottawa War Memorial. The guy jumps in his car and heads out to Parlement forcing his way through the MP entrance and nearly breaking into a private meeting of the ruling party MPs before the guards killed him.

So touching and heartwarming. I remember as a little girl living in Canada whenever we went to many parades of all sorts I would cry whenever the armed forces went by - especially the Highlanders. The bagpipes always gave me chills from head to toe and made me feel so emotional - still to this day..

THANK YOU TO A BROTHER IN ARMS.MY CONDOLENCES TOO HIS FAMILY.A BRAVE SOLDIER.MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

Good bye nathan. A nation mourns your passing. You will be remembered.

This has got to be one of the most incredible processions i've ever seen - everyone in unity. RIP Cp. Cirillo....

So much Scottish pride, Scottish bravery and Scottish heart in the country. Worked hand in hand with them in A/ghan and would happily do so again. Brothers in arms. From a Glasgow Marine.

You know the sad thing is that, if America has all this pride, why have I never seen a service like this done before. I lived near the largest navel station on the east coast for 20 years and have never witnessed pride like this, I honestly shed a few tears while watching this. Although I have never met you nor heard of you Mr. Nathan Cirillo, I give my best wishes to your family and RIP Cpl. Thank you for your service.

Beautiful. This country lost one that can't be replaced...but to see the guys walk along side and make sure it's all good, Be proud folks, be proud to be Canadian

Rest In Peace, Cpl Cirillo. I never had the privilege of meeting you when I served, but you'll still always be a brother in arms and for that, I weep when I watch this. When you're up in Heaven, be sure to get a few wobbly pops downrange for all of us. We all miss you dearly, whether we knew you or not. Stand Easy, brother.

I see so many different colors of people, different cultures and creeds. Different faces... all waving Canadian flags. Maybe those like me, who have family that came here 100 years ago. Maybe some that are first generation Canadians. I'm sure there are a few that escaped not long ago from some horrible oppression, either political or otherwise, just wanting a chance at a better life. All now Canadians. All giving respect to Corporal Cirillo. This is the Canada I love.

It is so crazy anymore. I got completely out of law enforcement in 2006, after more than 35 yrs in it in some manner or another. I love in Kansas, and I still have many friends involved in the Blue Line. It seems like every day for many years, more so after Obama, that officers are killed somewhere in the states. More and more officers killed for NK reason, except the wear the uniform and badge. Please everyone on the roads, watch out for each other, watch your six, and know mo matter where you are here in the USA, and I can make it to watch your six, I’ll strap on and back you.

it was such a sad day. RIP Cpl Nathan Cirillo.

On October 22, 2014, at Parliament Hill in Ottawa. At the Canadian National War Memorial, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau fatally shot Corporal Nathan Cirillo, a Canadian soldier on ceremonial sentry duty. He then entered the nearby Centre Block parliament building, where members of the Parliament of Canada were attending caucuses. After wrestling with a security guard at the entrance, Zehaf-Bibeau ran inside and was cornered and killed by the Commons Sergeant-at-Arms, Kevin Vickers, after a shootout with parliament security personnel.

Wow thats amazing.. never seen a military funeral like it.. as we say here in Australia.. we shall remember them.. lest we foget..

A Canadian Soldier who did his Duty. To his Family, I grieve with thee.

for those 29 people who Dared disliked this videos are nothing but cruel and Heartless monsters who have no Respect for the men and women and their Families who made the hardest and greatest Sacrifices in Protecting their Country. this just a wonderful and dignified Send off to their Heroes

Such an amazing way to honor him. Thank you soldier for serving and protecting.

That's a beautiful funeral service, my respects to this service man and his family. HOOAH! Rip and god bless

RIP Cpl. You did your part. My Good have mercy on you now

Seeing the contingent pan out from behind the pipes and drums at 8:08 filled me with pride.

Today marks 5 years since Nathan was taken from us. RIP dear friend, we will never forget you

Whoa! God Bless Canada! What an amazing send off for a fallen hero! All hail the victorious dead! May their triumphs and sacrifices be a guide to us all!

That was a big parade.. Well done everyone.. RIP Cpl Cirillo!

Canadians are a proud people but we honour our fallen, and we honour and respect all who serve. They deserve our gratitude. This tribute was no more than CPL. Cerillo deserved.

I love the bagpipes and drums in this video a lot and the reason Is because I play the tenor drums in a pipe and drum band that is named after the famous black watch which is a British Canadian and Scottish infantry regiment

To stand on guard for thee. Nathan showed how that is done. Rest good soldier.

so sad to see Nathan's dog lying in his yard waiting, crying....

RIP!!! GOD HAS ALL OF THE BEST SOLDIERS

This was beautiful.

great video but had me in tears when i saw the gun salute it hit home reminds me of when i lost me best mate he was 21 thanx for posting this

I remember this vividly, both the return home and funeral. It was a difficult time and turnout from the community on both occasions was large and heartfelt, as far as I know nothing of this magnitude since then. Unfortunately my documentation of this is lost, so this is a helpful reminder. I was standing about 100 m farther up on the same side of this street. May he never be forgotten and such acts of terrorism never occur again on Canadian soil.

That was heart breaking and heart warming at the same time. I’m pretty sure he’s got a BIG😇 smile on his face.

Incredible. How many troops? RIP Nate.

I still remember you, my friend

This is a awesome show of respect and love I never seen so much love Rest in Paradise sir my condolences and prayers to his family and friends 🙏🙏

Did anybody not attend the funeral? The whole town went. What an honor.
